There’s something romantic about steam train travel. It could be the sounds, it could be the furnishings which carry the passenger back in time or it could be that the world moves at a slower pace on a train.

Steamrail Victoria is a non-for-profit organisation that has been preserving locomotive’s and history of steam trains across Victoria for more than 30 years.

Run by volunteers and self funded the organisation is full of people passionate about steam trains. As part of the organisations efforts to keep these marvels of historical engineering alive they are holding a Snow Train tour in Gippsland.

Jack Nicholson spoke to Sian about his passion for trains and the tour.
